What Is a Certificate of No Record of a Marriage?

A Certificate of No Record of a Marriage is an official statement—typically issued by the U.S. Vital Records Office or drafted as a notarized affidavit—confirming that there is no record of marriage on file for the individual in the issuing state. It is commonly used to:

• Prove eligibility to marry abroad
  
  

• Satisfy marriage licensing requirements in Arab countries
  
  

• Support immigration, visa, or family sponsorship cases
  
  

• Demonstrate civil status in foreign courts
  
  

This document may also be called:

• Letter of No Impediment to Marry
  
  

• Single Status Affidavit
  
  

• Certificate of No Marriage Record
  
  

Do You Need It Legalized?

Yes. Arab embassies require this document to be:

1. Notarized if it's an affidavit, or certified by the state if issued by vital records
   
   

2. Authenticated by the Secretary of State of the issuing state
   
   

3. Authenticated by the U.S. Department of State in Washington D.C.
   
   

4. Legalized by the destination country’s embassy
   
   

💡 This document is frequently required alongside a marriage license application in countries such as UAE, Jordan, Lebanon, and Egypt.
